That was the problem that faced Palo Alto High School in the past year. The careful organization of the school, for years very satisfactory, had to be greatly reorganized. No longer was the freshman class with us, but instead Paly High was for the first time in history Palo Alto Senior High School. The new and modern Junior High School, the new home for our freshmen, left a problem of readjustment that was difficult, but was faced scientifically. Smaller and consequently better classes resulted, along with many other im- provements, but student body activities suffered from such a small enrollment. The Campanile and the Madrono faced a crisis, student body cards were few in number. But in the end these problems were worked out. Now Palo Alto Senior High School, past the embryonic stage, can look forward to the future with enthusiasm and confidence. 2)
